Ciuniurumauten. Welcome.
Each of the communities in our service area is home to a federally-recognized Tribe, whose governing council has authorized YKHC to provide health services on behalf of the federal Indian Health Service (IHS).
YKHC’s healthcare delivery system includes community clinics, sub-regional clinics in five of the area’s larger communities, a regional hospital, dental and optometry services, behavioral health services, counseling and treatment for individuals with substance use disorders, health promotion and disease prevention programs, and environmental health services.
The Yukon-Kuskokwim Health Corporation has earned the Joint Commission's Gold Seal of Approval.
Our children are precious and loved. They rely on all of us to help them grow up safe, supported, and surrounded by care.
April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month, a time to raise awareness about the importance of protecting children and supporting families in our communities. Preventing child abuse often begins with supporting families before a crisis occurs. Parenting can be stressful, especially when caregivers are exhausted, dealing with financial or social stress, or caring for a child who cries frequently or has complex needs.
At YKHC, we work to connect families with resources such as social work, behavioral health, parenting support, or community services that can help reduce stress and strengthen families. We know that small moments of support can make a lasting impact for both children and caregivers.
Throughout April, we encourage everyone to wear blue on Fridays to recognize National Child Abuse Prevention Month and show our commitment to keeping children safe.

Take a minute to think about one or two things that you are grateful for. Close your eyes and picture that person or thing. Notice how thinking about that person or thing makes you feel. Take a deep breath and allow yourself to be filled with gratitude.
April is Stress Awareness Month. Stress is a common and significant health issue that can lead to various problems, including anxiety, depression, heart disease, and obesity. By taking time to understand how stress affects our mind and bodies, we can begin to build a toolbox of exercises that can help us work through stress in healthy and meaningful ways.
If your stress is overwhelming and leading to unhealthy coping behaviors, consider reaching out at YKHC’s Behavioral Health team at 907-543-6100 or visit www.ykhc.org/behavioral-health
